Chapter 1816: Once-in-a-millennium maintenance period [free]

[There will be two paid chapters later, and two free chapters tomorrow! ]

"It has only been about 10 days since the intermediate professional title found me. If the approval only takes one second, doesn't it mean that he only needs 10 days to lead the army to attack me? Then I won't even have enough time to finish "The Sun and the Moon Upside Down"! " Listening to No. 2's words, Liu Xu muttered in his heart in despair.

However, he still asked unwillingly, "If it really only takes one second, then wouldn't the project be approved right now?"

"Oh... then I'll check... Hey, this is really strange, this project hasn't been approved yet, and it's been submitted for three hours... Let me check what's going on!" No. 2's surprised voice came from the call, which made Liu Xu happy. He didn't expect that there would be such an unexpected surprise.

"Damn, I didn't expect that it's the disk cleanup period that happens once every 2 years. Is this possible?" No. 2's surprised voice came from the call. Liu Xu hurriedly asked what happened, and then No. said, "Your luck is incredible. Today is the disk cleanup period that happens once every years. I'm afraid this project won't be approved in a short time."

"What disk cleanup day?" Liu Xu asked curiously.

"It's to clean up the disk, which is the storage space at the core of Qidian. The disk is the storage hardware in the earliest days of computer development. It is used to store various data recorded in the computer."

"As you know, computers generate a lot of data every day, and all this data needs to be stored, which takes up a lot of storage space. When all the storage space is occupied, the computer's operating speed will be greatly reduced, and it will also cause various failures, so we must try our best to ensure that the computer has enough storage space!"

"So every once in a while, we clean up the computer's disk space and remove a lot of outdated and useless data to free up space for future use."

"Since the very beginning of the intelligent core, this kind of disk cleaning and maintenance at regular intervals has become a constant project. Although our starting core has been continuously upgraded, the storage space has also evolved from the original solid-state hard drive to the current photon matrix, which can store unimaginable amounts of data. But now the technological world is even larger, and the various data generated every day are at a astronomical level. Even if the photon matrix continues to store data for about 1 years, more than half of the space will be occupied."

"So the current cleanup cycle is 1 years. Every 1 years, the Starting Point Core will block most of the memory and external functions, retaining only the most basic functions for handling daily affairs of the world. The rest of the computing power will be used to clean up all the data accumulated over the past 1 years."

"Delete all the obsolete data and save the useful data. Then remove this part of the photon matrix and put it in the warehouse for physical storage. At the same time, replace the starting point core with a new photon storage matrix."

"In addition, the entire world will take this opportunity to perform large-scale maintenance on the hardware of the Starting Point Core to ensure that the Starting Point Core can operate smoothly. So during this period, although the Starting Point Core will still retain some computing power and processing capabilities, it will only process existing things. New projects will not be approved until the maintenance cycle is over."

"So your project will definitely not be approved now. You have to wait until 100 days, when the entire maintenance cycle is over, before the new project can be approved. You got 100 days for nothing, you are so lucky!" No. 2 said with emotion. "Damn!" Liu Xu was also extremely unbelievable after hearing this. How could such a good thing exist in the world? He even instinctively began to suspect whether there was a problem, so he asked, "Is this cycle fixed? Or is it temporarily opened!"

"Of course it's fixed!" No. 2 said unhappily, "Do you think the Starting Point Core will change the cycle just for you? I checked, all maintenance periods start at 1:1 p.m. on the day after standard years. This cycle is the same, it's exactly years away from the previous cycle, not a minute or a second off."

"So this cycle was set 1 years ago... no, to be exact, more than 3600 million years ago. Because the time of this maintenance period has not changed in the past 3 million years, how could it be targeted specifically at you!"

"And this can be said to be saving you, how can it be targeted like this!" No. 2 said unhappily. Liu Xu nodded. Only then did he believe that his luck was really against the sky. He actually encountered such a maintenance period and bought himself a full 100 days out of thin air.

"Even if the project does not pass the approval, can you still come and arrest me within these 100 days?" Liu Xu asked again.

"Of course, you are just a research material. How can you capture a research material without the approval of the core?" No. 2 said with a smile, "But your ability seems to be very good, otherwise my mentor's mentor would not have applied for a senior professional title for this. This means that he thinks that no one among the intermediate professional titles can deal with you."

"If a senior professional title takes action, it will definitely require the approval of the core of Starting Point. After all, every senior professional title represents the overall trend of our world and cannot be taken lightly. So as long as you are sure that you can withstand the offensive of the intermediate mentor, you can definitely hold on for another hundred days... But if I were you, I would definitely run away directly. It is safest to escape without a trace!" No. 2 said this and ended the communication.

"Thank you, brother!" Liu Xu said gratefully in his heart again. The last sentence of No. 2 was not said casually. It was clearly a reminder to himself to take advantage of these 100 days to escape quickly instead of staying there and waiting to die.

No. 2 undoubtedly took a huge risk by saying such a thing. He really regarded himself as a friend.

"Compared to the first time we met, this guy is becoming more and more like a human being!" Liu Xu couldn't help but sigh. When he first met No. 1, he could only be said to be a researcher with basically no humanity, but now there seems to be no difference between him and an ordinary person.

"Could it be that Xiaobaiwen has the magical effect of restoring people's humanity!" Liu Xu said to himself. However, what he said was not wrong. After all, the surname Y is the most instinctive and primitive desire of human beings, and it is also the most basic human nature. As long as the surname Y is activated, most of the human nature can naturally be focused.
